  • 1.6kg skinless salmon fillet, pin-boned
  • 1/2 cup (125ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • 250g punnet cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 300g baby kipfler potatoes, peeled, cooked until tender, cooled

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 120°C and line a roasting pan with baking paper.
  • Place the quail eggs in a pan of cold water over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes for soft-boiled. Drain and refresh under cold water, then set aside.
  • Place the salmon in the roasting pan, season and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Place the tomatoes on a baking tray, drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil and season. Bake the salmon and tomatoes for 20-25 minutes until the salmon is medium-rare and the tomatoes have wilted slightly.
  • Meanwhile, cut the potatoes into 5mm-thick slices and set aside. Peel the quail eggs and halve. Set aside. Combine lemon juice with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and season. Set dressing aside.
  • Place salmon on a platter, spread over pasta sauce and season. Scatter with eggs, potato, beans, tomatoes, onion, olives and parsley. Drizzle with dressing and serve.
